Hi,
I've got two niggly problems with my TyTN:
1. Despite having the power options set to 'turn off device if not used for' set to '2 minutes' the phone never actually powers off, the backlight goes off but I can still see the screen text and buttons remain active. (the only thing running in the background is Spb Pocket Plus).
2. Two days ago I set the alarm for 6.30 AM, it went off, i then adjusted it to 7.30 AM. This morning the alarm went off at 6.30 AM and 7.30 AM (I double checked the settings and there is only one alarm set).
PS. I also have a keyboard which doesn't respond perfectly to every key press although I am finding this is improving the more I use it.
I add point 3) e 4) :
3) Sometimes when alarm rings I can't see nothing... no Notification...just the ring...therefor I can't stop it!!!
4) It's happened two times... I set sound off... through comm.manager ( I'M SURE) and after a while when my friends called me the phone rang! It's strange don't u think?

In my TyTN this problem seems to be connected to phone module. In fact when the phone module is inactive, my TyTN correctly sleeps. Moreover when it is in charge and when the backlight off timeout is set to greater time than sleep timeout, I can observe that the device correctly sleeps.

this happened to me yesterday! Alarm ringing but no notification and no chance to turn it off!
After 3 hours the red led was still flashing and the problem was there...
Solution? Hard reset :evil:

3) Can happen if you go and remove alarms from the notification queue, for example memmaid can be used to do this.
Or use check notifications - see my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=60426&highlight=
I just resolved by mammeid. MUST have software
I had this same problem on my TyTN, also could be fixed using MemMaid - the old alarms stopped ringing after deleting the clock.exe entries in the Notification queue.
However, the alarms STILL aren't working ok, because any time I set a new alarm when it rings I don't get any notification so I can dismiss it, so it keeps ringing until I delete it again using MemMaid. Any idea of how can I fix this?
Thank you.

I deleted all the entries using MemMaid... then I soft-reset and now I don't have any problem using alarm! Notification appears again so I can stop it!

I have exactly the same problem on my 838Pro now (used to have this happened to me on my 818Pro as well. Didn't know what to do, so I hard-reset).
Marques, are you able to try what El_Mar1ach1 has tried, that is to delete all Clock entries using MemMaid and do a soft-reset? Create new alarm using Clock and see if you get any notification.
I could have tried that myself, but unfortunately my unit is in the service centre, and won't be getting it back until tomorrow or day after.
I have a good restore on my storage card that will bring this problem back for me to try when I get my unit back, so that at least if this happens again in the future, we will all know how to resolve it.
Yesterday wasn't working. Today I tryed again the same procedure and it's back to normal. Working again...
Meanwhile I installed PocketAlarm (http://pocketalarm.iit-bsuir.com/indexen.htm) and I'm starting to use it instead of the system alarm.
Do you guys know any other nice alarm applications to test it out?
I recently installed the day light savings patch to my cingular 8525 so I don't know if this has anything to do with it. However, my pre-set alarms now will chime when they're supposed to, but the "notification" in the bottom left hand corner does not come up. Now, the alarm goes on and on until I turn the phone off for a short period of time. Even then, sometimes the alarm continues to ring, maybe until it times out. But I can't seem to turn off my alarm.
Anyone have an idea of what might be causing this?
I've noticed that if I turn off ALL of my alarms that it no longer does this (no alarms to come on!) but the secondary issue is then I no longer get notices when my meetings are about to start. So either I get notification for when my meetings start and every morning I struggle with turning my alarm off, or I get no notices whatsoever.
The missed calls and text message notifications are working normally.
Hi,
I have problem with alarm. I have setup 3 alarms. All are from monday to friday.
1. 5:45
2. 6:00
3. 6:15
So at 5:45 start ringing and swipe DOWN do not turn off alarm. I can't silence alarm, only way to do this is if I turn off phone. This hass happen on stock ROM, now when I have rooted rom and Im wipe all data is same.
Have someone similar problem? How can I fix it?
Thanks for any help.
why 3 alarms? You can set the option of longer snooze if u whish. you can also set the behavior of side buttuns during alarm.
Btw. I dont have any issues with turning off the alarm.

-CacheCleaner(On Stock ROM Im not use it)
-bMonitor Server Monitor (On Stock ROM Im not use it)
-Paper Toss (On Stock ROM Im not use it)

-Documents To Go (On Stock ROM Im not use it)
-Google Maps 4.1.1
This is all what I have installed. Now on rooted ROM I have also A2SD.
Please detail the actual behaviour and expected behaviour clearly.
It sounds like you are expecting, upon turning off the first alarm, the other 2 will turn off as well. Even if you untick/retick they will say "Alarm sounds in 15 minutes" (or the equiv.).

It is simple. At 5:45 start alarm beeping and I can't turn it off. I swipe down on screen to dismiss it but it do not stop producing sound. Only way to stop sound is turning off phone. I don't want when I "stop" first alarm that other two is stopped to, for this I can use snooze...
Im fix problem:
-Delete all alarms in STOCK Alarm clock
-Download: Better Alarm Clock
-Setup same alarms
And today on morning Im get dialog with dismiss and snooze button and Im normaly stop alarm...
me too
Sync yesterday I have exactly the same problem: can't turn off/snooze/silence the first alarm and I have to turn off the phone to stop the sound.
I'll root the device this weekend, I hope that will fix it.

I currently use rooted ROM and is same so is not fix issue...
turn it upside down
I just use 1 alarm, when it goes off i turn the phone on its belly and its stops for x minutes. When I get up (turning it a few times) I turn it off...
I guess it is a BUG:
1. setup your phone for alarm
2. before the alarm started to be ringing, turn on the screen (wake it up by pushing the top button)
3. when the alarm starts to ring, drag down the slide button
4. enjoy the ring for ever )))
Reason:
when the alarm activated and starts to ring the sense not updated fast enough the slide down button. therefore the sense just "thinks" you want to unclock the screen, instead of adding the function next to it to dismiss the alarm
Had this happen to me this morning. Got an sms just before the alarm went off. After closing the sms box there was no way to stop the alarm, had to restart the phone. Very annoying.

I do the same with alarm, and this problem don't appear on my Desire.
Alaram Bug
I to am facing the same issue, is there any fix for this?
Happened to me this morning too, anyone knows if it works better with third party alarm installed?
I received an sms, handcent installed, coming back from bathroom it was ringing for about 15 minutes. I removed the battery...
That sounds like a pain in the butt . No idea of a fix but there are plenty of 3rd party alarms out there with much better functions than the standard alarm. better alarm clock , alarm clock xtreme and alarm clock pro v2 to name but a few .. they also have options to set a math question on wake so no need for 3 alarms a day plus can set lots of alarms with different times for different days . i use alarm clock pro and it removes the lock screen altogether wakes with the phone on main screen so shouldn't end up facing the lock screen bug!
There's an appbrain link to 2 alarms in my thread link in sig
had this problem once
switched to gentle alarm and fixed the problem
I have this same issue. About half the time, if the phone is in use in some form and the alarm goes off, there is no way to turn it off. Occasionally I get the snooze/dismiss option, but more often than not I end up having to shut the phone down to make it stop.
Would love to try any suggestions!
I don't know if anyone else is having this issue, but this has happened twice to me now, in a week. I have the snooze set to 3x10 (which I find odd that you have to enable snooze in the first place) however, it doesn't always work, like this morning I hit snooze and once again the alarm never came back.
and I'm not hitting the wrong button, at least they used different colors for the two.
Mine is working great. Never had a problem and I actually love the new alarm clock. I thought it was strange to have to enable it, but I'm guessing it's because they gave you the ability to customize the snooze feature and just decided to have it turned off by default (not what I would've done but it wasn't that big of a deal to turn it on)
I have the same issue the alarm is pretty bad.

I have not seen that problem on my Vibrant.
But it does remind me of the good old days when I first got my G1 its stock alarm clock would just not work at all sometimes it was like a random chance of it going off.... made me late for work twice lol.
Same problem here.
This morning, I found that if I hit the volume down key instead of the snooze button, it works.
Also, anyone figure out what's the point of Smart Alarm?

Smart Alarm is an alarm that starts before your regular alarm lol... you can have it play rain sounds or morning bird chirps for 3 minutes before your alarm goes off.
I'm having issues with my alarm as well. This morning mine failed to go off at all, fortunately I set my touch as a backup.

For some reason it doesn't give me a snooze option when the smart alarm goes off.
Also I got to work late this morning because my alarm didn't go off at all. I had fallen to sleep using the "Sleepy Time" app and apparently when it's running, the alarm won't go off.
At least I hope it's that app because if it isn't then I have some unknown issue that makes the alarm unreliable.
Yeah I'm just gonna have to get me a cheap alarm clock... It's hard to trust it, i've been late twice now in a week...
i've used the alarm clock since the day it came out and it's never let me down yet. make sure you don't have a task killer that kills it before it can come on and that when you snooze you actually long-press on the button to do so. i'm sure i told you a bunch of stuff you already know/have tried, but i wanted to make sure.
I set my snooze to try it out and it only worked once. I think I had it set on 10 minutes, 3 times, and it didn't work.
Same problems here. I've got my Snooze set to "10 min, 5 times" and it doesn't work. I hit Snooze in the morning, then wake up an hour later and have to scramble to get ready for work.
I'm going to see if I can install the stock Android clock/alarm on it instead.
I use AlarmClock Plus instead of the stock program. No complaints so far.
Sounds like there may be a problem with snooze. I use the regular alarm and set 3 different times in the morning, all have worked since I setup the phone, but I dont use the snooze option.
I've had alarm issues on this and other samsung phones. They just don't work very well. I am using math alarm clock (paid app) now, can be found in the market. I love it and have had no issues. Plus I can't shut it off without looking at it which helps me, a very heavy sleeper, wake up.
What I've noticed is that if you have check marks on both the morning alarm and the normal alarm, in the same alarm profile, the morning alarm will go off first and only display the option of stopping that alarm, no snooze option appears on screen. The problem is that the morning alarm will stop all alarms in that alarm profile. So that back up alarm you set for 15 minutes after the morning alarm is also canceled once you stop it.
Making two alarm profiles fixed that problem for me.

I use Math Alarm in the market. It's a couple of bucks, but it might be the best non-root paid app I've ever used. You can set the math problems to varying degrees of difficulty and, for sound sleepers like me, it's a very useful tool.
I've never had a problem with the snooze that I can concretely tie to the application and not my sleepiness... but there have been some oddities. Tried snooze a few days ago and it worked fine, though.
Never had any troubles with the alarm going off (that would be hell). I actually like this alarm because it makes you press/hold instead of just tapping the dismiss/snooze button. That seems to help me actually wake up cause I have to think about it (as sad as that sounds...).
I personally have two physical alarms set.
1) 7:00am with 2 snoozes
2) 7:30am with no snoozes
So far I've used and messed with both since I've had my phone and like clock work they both haven't failed me once. I do however turn my phone off now and then and often my phone is off and when I am forced to get up at 6am to help the wife get out the door I go back to sleep and I rely on my phone after I turn it on to wake me back up.
Mine only snoozed once today although I had it set to do it 3 times.
Got a very weird problem. The other day while setting up my alarm to wake me up, my phone crashed. I rebooted, no problems.... at least so i thought.
Now my alarm keeps waking me up at 06:00am every day, while in my alarm settings all three my alarms are off! The alarm works normally, i can dismiss or snooze it.
What i tried so far: soft resetting and changing all alarm settings. no effect.
What i dont want to do: reinstall
Can anyone please give me the registry key for the alarm and tell me how to fix this? Thanks!
